2006 Rays Wheels

I kinda want to get the 2006 Rays wheels that go on the grand touring and Track models since they are wider and look sweet. When do you think they will be available to buy?

It would be cool to find a set of 19" all the way around.

Why would they go to 19s? I thought that you would get better performance out of 18s.

most would justify that as a minimal trade off for looks

Forged 18x9 with Bridgestone RE050A 245/40Y18. Rim will probably weigh around 18lbs, tire about 30lbs.

i doubt that...

18" LMGT4 Forged Wheel is 18lbs...
19" LMGT4 Forged Wheel is 20.9lbs

With tire will probably be just over 50lbs...

Why would you doubt that? GT wheels are roughly the same size and material composition/content as the LMGT4. Made by the same manufacturer, with the same forging process. Why would they weigh more? So again, if the wheel is roughly 20lbs, and the tire 30lbs..... that's 50lbs right?
